Description: Biopolitics, Governmentality and Humanitarianism : Caring for the Population in Afghanistan and Belarus, Hardcover by Piotukh, Volha, ISBN 0415855454, ISBN-13 9780415855457, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Piotukh critically analyzes what humanitarianism means after the Cold War. Using Foucault’s theories of biopolitics and governmentality, he offers an interpretation of the policies and practices associated with the “new” humanitarianism in general. He argues that the “new” humanitarianism, informed by globalizing neoliberalism and reliant on a complex set of biopolitical, disciplinary and sovereign technologies, demonstrates that the promise of care is more often than not accompanied by violence.
